Recently, the concept of smile aesthetics has emerged and become popular. However, smile aesthetics are not limited to aesthetically pleasing molds. For an aesthetically pleasing smile, dental models should be chosen according to face shape. Furthermore, factors such as gums, tooth alignment, and tooth color are also important factors. Initially, dental veneers are selected based on face shape. Today, e-max and zirconium veneers are very popular. Dental models are selected and applied based on the following facial features:
• Face length and forehead width,
• The distance between the lips and eyebrows, such as the ratio of the nose to the neck,
• The distance between the eyebrows and the length of the chin,
• The ratio of the width of the nose to the mouth,
• The width of the nostrils to the nose,
• The distance between the eyebrows and the pupils,
• Deformities of the facial features, etc.
Things to Consider When Creating a Dental Model Based on Face Shape
If you are having a new dental model made for your mouth, the dentist will consider the facial features. However, there are some points to consider when creating a dental model based on your face shape. These are as follows:
• If you have a small face, you should avoid square or long dental crowns. Otherwise, they can create a harsh appearance.
• If your face is square, you can give your face a graceful appearance by choosing dental crowns with soft edges.
• If you have very full facial features, you can slim your face by choosing long teeth.
• If you have thin facial features, you should avoid long teeth. Conversely, choosing long teeth will make your face appear longer. Therefore, you can opt for fuller, wider dental crowns or crowns.
How Are Dental Models Applied to Your Face?
People who are dissatisfied with their teeth and want to achieve a smile aesthetic often have new models made. So, how are dental models applied to your face? First, the patient's facial features are measured to determine the type of dental crowns they will choose. These facial features include the jaw, facial muscles, forehead, lips, nose, and eyebrows. Following the measurements, the dentist prepares a plan.
This plan includes the patient's appropriate tooth model, the treatment method, and the desired tooth color. After the plan is prepared, the results are drawn digitally to best match the patient's photo. If the patient achieves a positive result, the application phase begins. During the application, natural teeth can be cut according to the selected tooth model. If the patient is unhappy with the color, laser-assisted removal of any remaining stains on the tooth surface will achieve a whiter smile.
What Treatments Does Smile Design Include?
Dentists select the tooth models based on their face shape. Smile designs are applied using specialized technology. People seeking a custom-designed dental design often ask questions about the treatments involved in smile design and what they are. Smile designs include the following treatments:
Porcelain Veneers: These veneers are bonded to the front surfaces of the teeth. They are made of thin porcelain. They are one of the fastest procedures and restore the shape and natural color of the teeth in a short time.
Teeth Whitening Treatment: This treatment is performed on individuals who are dissatisfied with their tooth color.
Implants are one of the most frequently used procedures today. They replace missing teeth if a person has one.
Orthodontic Treatments are used to correct crooked or misaligned teeth.
Zirconium Veneers are a frequently preferred method by dentists. Because zirconium is transparent, it provides a natural appearance.
Empress Veneers are the closest design to natural teeth. They are made from porcelain and are preferred for aesthetically pleasing results.
